years ago I did that with Quake 2. Middle of the night, by myself, playing with headphones on through the Detention center/plant portion. Then realized I was alone and with the headphones on I couldn't hear anything around me.

I've heard that's a particularly bad idea with Silent Hill. I did it with Thief: The Dark Project, 2nd level, where you're breaking into a detention center through abandoned mines, and then you get hit from behind, by surprise, by the zombies that you thought were just dead bodies... in a dark, silent house at 2am. I put the game away for the night. :]
